Maturing As A Business Owner & Leader with Rebekah Grmela | Episode 27

I’m excited to chat with Rebekah Grmela, Founder + CEO of Right + Good Consulting. Like her business name suggests, she’s an advocate for making the world around us better, both through relationships and through broader impact in our work.

I think you’ll really relate to the transitions she’s gone through and is currently navigating in her life and business.

In this episode, we chat through:

• Designing a business around your life (and vice versa)
• Getting insight on big decisions when they keep resurfacing in your conversations
• Taking a chance on herself and leaving a good thing, even amongst doubt from others
• Doing slow and authentic marketing
• Treating people like people in business
• Pivoting from idea to implementation
• Hiring people with similar values and different personality types
• Planning for maternity leave
• Investing in learning, growth, and a team
• Knowing what actions NOT to take, as much as the ones to take
• Getting caught in comparison, especially with something as externally oriented as marketing
• Honing your editing reflex and learning to pause in CEO mode
• Having the willingness to tackle hard conversations
